Abstract: Due to the indirect transition characteristic of silicon semiconductors, the light extraction efficiency of a silicon-based light emitting diode is lower than that of a compound semiconductor-based light emitting diode. For this reason, there are difficulties in practically using and commercializing silicon-based light emitting diodes developed so far.

Abstract: A display device includes a first substrate including pixels and sensing electrodes corresponding with the pixels, and a second substrate facing the first substrate. The second substrate includes an organic layer with a black matrix dividing the pixels and a sensing spacer opposite to the sensing electrode. The organic layer including the black matrix and the sensing spacer may be formed in a single process using organic photoresist material. A mask includes a light-intercepting pattern including slits to block a portion of ultraviolet light emitted towards a photoresist layer to form the black matrix. The mask also includes a pattern to block ultraviolet light in a region corresponding to the sensing spacer if a negative type photoresist material is used, or the mask does not block ultraviolet light in the region corresponding to the sensing spacer if a positive type photoresist material is used.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for inputting a character using a keyboard displayed on a touch screen in a portable terminal. The apparatus and method determines if a touch signal is generated, with the keyboard displayed. Upon generation of the touch signal, a touched character is recognized by analyzing the touch signal. The character is displayed enlarged in a predetermined screen area. It is then determined if the touch has been completed, while the character is displayed enlarged. Upon sensing the touch completion, the character is displayed in a main screen area.

Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and method for inputting characters in a portable terminal. The method for inputting characters in a portable terminal includes the steps of: performing a soft keyboard when in a character input mode; recognizing a character touched on the soft keyboard; displaying the recognized character enlarged and displaying one or more recommended words formed by combining characters which have been touched so far in a predetermined screen area; and inputting the character displayed enlarged to a main screen area upon detecting the release of touch.

Abstract: A color filter panel for a flat panel display includes a substrate, a plurality of color filters formed on the substrate and dyed by at least two color dyes to represent at least two colors, and a column spacer made of the same material as the color filters.

Abstract: The inventive indene derivatives of formula (I) are capable of selectively modulating the activities of peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs), causing no adverse side effects, and thus, they are useful for the treatment and prevention of disorders modulated by PPARs, i.e., metabolic syndromes such as diabetes, obesity, arteriosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, hyperinsulinism and hypertension, inflammatory diseases such as osteoporosis, liver cirrhosis and asthma, and cancer.

Abstract: A display substrate includes a transparent plate and a liquid crystal dispersion adjuster. The display substrate includes a display area and a peripheral area surrounding the display area. The liquid crystal dispersion adjuster is formed in the peripheral area to modify the movement of the liquid crystal. The dispersion adjuster includes enhancing parts and a suppression part. The enhancing parts increase the dispersion of the liquid crystal, and the suppression part reduces the dispersion of the liquid crystal, thereby reducing non-filling area of the liquid crystal and the contamination of a seal-line.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display is provided, which includes a first panel and a second panel facing each other, a liquid crystal layer formed between the first and second panels, and a plurality of column spacers each having a pillar and a base supporting the pillar. The width of the pillar is less than that of the base portion.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for removing signal interference in a local radio communication device mounted in a mobile terminal. The method comprises receiving information on a channel in use from the mobile terminal in session; determining based on the received channel information whether a harmonic component of a channel frequency used by the mobile terminal belongs to a frequency band used by the local radio communication device; and assigning a channel in a frequency band with none of the harmonic component among the frequency band used by the local radio communication device as a channel of the local radio communication device, when the harmonic component of the channel frequency used by the mobile terminal belongs to the frequency band used by the local radio communication device.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a composition for use in liver function improvement, blood alcohol level reduction and in-vivo antioxidant activity enhancement, comprising Lactobacillus brevis HY7401, Lactobacillus fermentum CS332, Lactobacillus acidophilus CSG, Bifidobacterium longum HY8001, an Alder tree extract, a Selfheal extract, a milk thistle extract, a green bean-rice bran fermentation extract, a turnip extract, a tomato extract, a broccoli extract, a pineapple extract, a colostrum powder, betaine, vitamin B1, B2, B3, B6, B9, B12, C, and E.
